Fracture of amorphous polymers: A gradient-damage theory

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd We have formulated a new gradient-damage theory for the deformation and failure of amorphous polymers. Our theory accounts for inelastic deformation and damage due to crazing, and also due to a network-disentanglement mechanism, with the damage eventually culminating in brittle f...
